This was already posted in another thread but this can't be emphasized enough. And the fact that 85% of democrats support the indictments shows we are polarized beyond recovery.

The poll from The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research, which was conducted before Monday’s charges in the Georgia case, also shows that about half of Americans — 53% — approve of the Justice Department indicting Trump over his efforts to remain in office after losing the 2020 election.

About half of the country are complete idiots, so this makes sense.

It's 53% of Americans, a clear majority, before evidence is presented in court.

If the trial goes poorly for Trump, it'll be 70% in favor and Trump in prison. If it goes well for Trump, it'll turn 180º.

I think it's more than stupidity myself. It's also malice and support for tyranny. Disapproval is one thing, but actually a supermajority of a party supporting throwing a political opponent in jail is remarkable. I guess it's not surprising but still alarming and really bad news for the future of our republic.

Polls and statistics are like bikini's. They reveal much but hide vital area's.

So many sheep believe what they hear on television and in the news, so after 8 years of hearing Trump is literally Hitler and an evil white supremacist of course they support throwing him in jail. They have been lied to so effectively they don't know they've been lied to.

And that is why I think it is extremely likely that Biden did receive more votes than Trump. Lots of idiotic voters. Lots of voters (about half) who pay zero income taxes.

You tell me

If it's even close to half of Americans, that is sad

This isn't any kind of serious opinion-VERY few have really looked at the indictments in any detail.

Instead this, like most issues, is just a proxy for political affiliation.

I didn't post it... So, this poll is good and polls showing Desantis falling way behind are bad? Obviously in your humble opinion...

The sooner this 50 state nation is deposed, the better off I will be. Trump is obviously okay with the being the martyr, so I’ll support him until that time. If he happens to out cheat tRegime, even better.
